Plaud pairs dedicated recording hardware (Plaud Note, Plaud NotePin) with AI transcription and summarization to capture conversations across phone, in-person, and virtual settings without relying on a constant internet connection.

Recordings are kept locally by default and can be processed with advanced language models for multilingual transcripts, speaker labels, and concise summaries—giving users control over which data is uploaded or shared.

Built for professionals who need discreet, reliable capture (sales, consulting, journalism), Plaud emphasizes long battery life, easy phone attachment recording, and privacy-focused workflows that avoid visible meeting bots or third-party monitoring.
